Experience counts when it comes to the design, engineering and fabrication of every part of a metal building. From the frame to a mezzanine or base trim, ensuring the work is done in a timely and economical manner requires an experienced and professional team. Our in-house Drafting & Engineering group has over 40 full time members, licensed in all 50 states. Combined with our two 250,000 square foot manufacturing facilities – both the original plant in Houston and a second in Tallapoosa, Georgia – have made Whirlwind Steel an industry leader during our 65 years as a family run business.

Doors

Enhance the functionality and look of your building with the right doors, whether walk-in or overhead. Note that many overhead and hangar doors come in a variety of heights and widths requiring careful planning since these need extra headroom to accommodate motors and other specific needs.
